“Hihi.”
In the end, Gyu So-ha, who was able to possess the body of Seo Hye-in, the female leader of the Four Peaks Demonstration Troupe, according to his own will, grinned as if he was satisfied.
Looking at Gyu So-ha like that, Cheongryeong clicked his tongue.
-Tsk tsk. I don’t understand why you like him so much and insist that he’s a man.
-Yes.
Mo Kyung-un shrugged his shoulders.
In fact, it didn’t matter whether Gyu So-ha was a woman or a man.
I just needed a card that I could move as I wanted.
-Anyway, what are you going to do? No matter what the process was, you sentient beings have put the second disciple, Jang Neung-ak, and the youngest disciple, Wei So-yeon, into your hands just as you intended.
-Not completely yet.
-Why do you think that?
– Only when we can move the right forces can we say that we have succeeded in merging the two groups.
Cheongnyeong spoke to Mok Gyeong-un’s words as if they were quite reasonable.
-Hoo? okay?
-Isn’t this the natural procedure?
-okay. That’s right. Petite henchmen may follow their masters’ advice, but real brats are different.
The real guy that Cheongnyeong talks about.
It did not mean the henchmen of the two successors.
Most of the henchmen were later leaders who would be responsible for the next generation, but currently, the executives behind them were the real power.
-If you try to suddenly merge the two forces, you may face opposition from the executives behind it.
-I guess so.
The henchmen who follow Jang Neung-ak or Wi So-yeon are later exponents of similar age.
Except in very rare cases, they had no choice but to follow their lord’s wishes.
However, as Cheongryeong said, the executives were different.
If they were to deviate from their interests, there was a high probability that they would come out differently.
-Do you have any countermeasures in mind for that?
-well. What should I do?
Cheongryeong looked puzzled at Mo Kyung-un’s question and asked.
-Are you seriously asking this?
-yes.
-······Sentient being, are you asking for advice from me?
-Yes, by the way.
-under? The sun will rise in the west. This is a guy who doesn’t listen to any advice given and just does whatever he wants.
-It seems like Cheongryeong is more familiar with organizing than me.
-······
-is not it?
-······joy. You’re talking nonsense.
-If you have a good solution, please let me know. I need to prepare before Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang wakes up and aims for my head.
Cheongryeong looked at Mokgyeongun’s words from inside the wooden doll as if he was surprised.
Looking at his actions, I thought he might do as he pleases until the end.
But at some point, he started borrowing his own advice little by little.
Especially when it comes to dealing with organizations like this.
‘This guy… ‘I think he might have what it takes to be a leader.’
It was an unexpected aspect.
The Mok Gyeong-un that I have observed so far was close to being a loner who never trusted others.
However, as I started dealing with well-organized enemies, my judgment and insight gradually improved accordingly.
These were the qualities of a leader.
A leader should not lead an organization through mere coercion or stubbornness, but should be able to observe and gain insight into the situation with a broad perspective and utilize talented people at the right time.
Although he was not conscious of it, Mok Gyeong-un was gradually doing it instinctively.
‘Isn’t it only martial arts that grows?’
He is truly a strange guy.
If one is outstanding, the other is bound to be lacking, but it seemed strange that he was growing in so many ways.
Mok Gyeong-un spoke to her who was secretly amazed.
-If there is no other solution…
-Move people.
-Move people?
-okay.
-How?
– Even if you run alone for 100 days, it is difficult to get the executives behind you to do what you want. However, if you move people, it will be easier.
-······.
-I guess it doesn’t touch me. There is a good example of this.
-which?
– King of Seomdog What did you do when that old sentient being cleaned up the surroundings, discussed the current situation with the Amjongju, and said that he would pursue an alliance?
-······I said please.
-okay. Didn’t you leave it to that old sentient being and do your own thing?
-Yes.
-That old sentient being is not your shikigami or possesses your weakness, so why did you entrust it to me so carelessly?

-that······.
Mok Gyeong-un did not continue talking.
It was because I realized what Cheongryeong’s intention was when he said this.
When the young man told people to move, he did not mean it simply.
What she really meant was,
‘······Are you asking me to believe it?’
Mo Kyung-un never trusted others.
Therefore, until he became a death row inmate, he did not trust anyone and moved alone.
However, at some point, the situation changed.
This was because I was faced with the limitations of my own strength.
If the person he considered his enemy was not a martial artist or was connected to a large organization like Cheonjihoe, he would still have tried to solve everything on his own.
But not now.
I realized that I needed a variety of cards to deal with a huge organization.
‘I believe…’
Mo Gyeong-un’s eyes narrowed.
We were aware that we needed a variety of cards, so we were gradually increasing the number of shikigami.
However, there was something I realized this time while making a new vengeful spirit into a food spirit.
The point was that food spirits could not be increased indefinitely.
[what? There was one more.]
I thought only one vengeful spirit was born among the warriors in Ha-seok, but then two entities were about to be created.
So, Mok Gyeong-un tried to make that one vengeful spirit into a food spirit as well.
But I couldn’t do that.
This was because the connection was not formed.
[-As expected.]
[As expected, what does that mean?]
[-Kite is literally like forcibly connecting fate. Destiny is inevitable and is no different from the bondage of the law, but it is even more strange that it is stretched indefinitely in the first place.]
[Is there a limit?]
[-If the relationship continues infinitely, that would actually harm the inevitability.]
Since Mo Kyung-un did not die, it was difficult to understand the enlightenment of the dead.
However, what was certain was that the act of increasing food spirits itself was close to breaking the law and necessity, so there were bound to be restrictions.
In conclusion, there was a limit to the number of food spirits that could be maintained.
Therefore, there is a limit to the method of increasing the number of cards that can be used by increasing the number of shikigami.
‘Is there nothing you can do?’
As Cheongryeong said, in order to increase the number of cards, a certain amount of ‘faith’ may be necessary.
Mok Gyeong-un, who was thinking about this, sighed and laughed.
The fact that someone who never trusts anyone considers trust in others in order to increase the number of cards to use.
Cheongnyeong said to Mok Gyeong-un.
-You middle school student are really unique too. The guy who is supposed to move people doesn’t actually trust people.
-Is this a contradiction?
-Contradiction······. Yes, that fits you perfectly. But suddenly I’m curious.
-What?
-Sentient beings, why do you not trust people?
-well. Do I really need to believe it?
Cheongryeong clicked his tongue inwardly at Mo Gyeong-un’s dry question.
‘Unusual guy.’
What if you were betrayed by someone you trusted as much as you did?
Why is it that a guy who hasn’t lived up to his terms of service can’t trust others so much?
Just because you have a different mindset than ordinary people?
Of course it could have been so.
If you think about what I’ve seen of him so far, he was full of irregularities and unexpectedness.
But for some reason, I felt like that wasn’t all.
‘······If you watch, you’ll find out.’
What he ultimately wanted to do was revenge.
If you watch the process of revenge, you will understand why Mok Gyeong-un is so distrustful of people.
Until then,
-Well, you are free to trust someone or not. In order to move an organization organically, you must have some level of trust.
– Now that you say that, keep that in mind. What should I do?
-What do you think is the most important card for the second disciple, Jang Neungak?
-He must be Ho Jong-hyuk’s master.
The father of Ho Jong-hyuk, the great leader of the Buchyeoldan, was Ho Tae-gang, a member of the Five Kings, a high-ranking official, and a member of the Palseong, who is considered the highest priest of the current Jungwon martial arts group.
-okay. That person must be the main force supporting Jang Neungak.
-If we move him, others will naturally have no choice but to follow the trend.
-right. So, King Pabu should move to Ho Jong-hyuk.
-That makes sense.
Ho Jong-hyuk was possessed by Wei Maeng-cheon.
Since Wi Maeng-cheon, a food spirit, has no choice but to follow Mo Gyeong-un’s orders, it will be helpful in persuading his physical father, King Pabu King Ho Tae-gang.
-The problem is not with the Jang Neungak faction, but with the Wi Soyeon faction.
-······I guess so.
-The biggest supporter and mainstay of Wi So-yeon’s faction wouldn’t be able to like you even if he tried.
The biggest supporter of the Wei So-yeon faction.
He was Son Yun, King of Myeongdo, a member of the Five Kings.
As Cheongnyeong said, the person with whom the relationship was most strained after joining Cheonjihoe was King Myeongdo.
He refused the offer to accept him as a disciple, and his relationship with his disciples Woo Ho-rang and Yeo Wi-seon was almost acrimonious.
Even Myeongdo King Son Yun’s new disciple, Mok Yu-cheon, did the same.
Mo Kyung-un shrugged his shoulders and said.
-Everything cannot be prosperous.
-Even if you die soon, you don’t think of it as your own grave.
-Is it meaningful to consider what has already happened?
-Tsk tsk. Anyway.
Cheongnyeong clicked his tongue.
And then he said:
-It’s obvious that the relationship will get worse if you make the move anyway, so move someone else.
-I think the disciples are already in the wrong.
There was no way that Woo Ho-rang and Ye Wei-seon would move for the sake of tree cultivation.
Moreover, he made Wei So-yeon his woman, so if he found out about it, he would be even more antipathetic.
-It would be better to coax him through the King of Amjong or the King of Seomdok.
-Through Amjongju or King Seomdog?
-okay. It would be easier to persuade if the same executives were in charge. However, it would be better to be the King of Seomdog than to be the leader of the Amjongjong. You, sentient being, know very well why you do that, right?
Mok Gyeong-un chuckled at Cheongryeong’s words.
Because I understood what she said.
King Amjong also entered into a conflict with King Son Yun of Myeongdo in order to obtain Mokgyeong-un at the closing ceremony of Sihyeolgok.
If he steps forward and asks to help the two factions join forces, will it really work?
-Then we have to move quickly.
The night wasn’t that long.
A coalition system had to be established quickly before Grand Duke Lu Liang came to his senses.
* * *
After leaving Jang Neung-ak’s residence, Mok Gyeong-un hurried to head to the manor of Baek Sa-ha, King of Seomdok.
However, on the way there, I came across a female warrior running towards me in a panting manner.
“Confucius! “You are here.”
Mo Gyeong-un asked curiously.
“What’s going on?”
“The Lord of Cancer is urgently looking for you.”
“Master?”
“Yes, he told me to bring him here immediately as it is a very urgent matter.”
‘Urgent?’
What on earth is happening?
Is it because Baek Sa-ha, the King of Island Poisons, talked about the incident with Prince Na Yu-ryang and asked to form an alliance?
But now, I had to go to Baek Sa-ha and tell him about King Son Yun of Mingdo first.
Mok Gyeong-un said this.
“all right. “For now, just for a moment…”
“You need to go now.”
“It won’t take long. first······.”
Before Mo Gyeong-un had even finished speaking, the warrior of Amjong spoke restlessly.
“It’s not possible. “You must go now.”
“Ah, this is really embarrassing. It quickly turns into carcinoma…”
“It’s not carcinoma.”
“yes?”
“Right now, Lord Amjong is having an audience with Lord Hoe at the main building in Naeseong.”
‘!?’
Hearing his words, Mo Kyung-un’s expression changed.
The head of the female clan was having an audience with the head of the Heaven and Earth Association and he urgently called him?
In the end, these words…
‘Can I meet that person?’
It was Mok Gyeong-un who tried to join the successors in order to create an opportunity to contact Hoeju.
But an unexpected opportunity to meet presented itself.
